    I can't imagine having something that I'm in "aw", about like you and your Hartley. I'm an older person with a life much different than yours. It warms my heart so much to see the happiness in you. Your videos have taught me much and brought/bring pleasure. Your family is a daily blessing 🙏.

    I've long searched for what it is exactly that makes your channel different from other gardening channels. I think it is your ability to connect the viewer with the plant or project. You and aaron provide true escapism and it is so appreciated.

Your family will look back and say " Oh Mom!".. lol.... Your Hartley will be where you bring the best of your garden into the best presentation ever. Again..
      Congratulations on your dream come true. And thank you for letting your admirers come along.

    Here in the Midwest, people often plant dill and parsley to act as host plants for swallowtail butterfly caterpillars. I'm not sure what species/host plants would work out in your area, but I'm sure Benjamin would love to see them getting "growed up" into butterflies along side all the beautiful plants. The Hartley is looking gorgeous with it's bricks, can't wait to see it all complete, with a floor and beautiful plants and cozy furnishings.

I loved watching Benjamin actually put the plant in the ground with you quietly helping. How could your kids NOT love gardening?

    I have never had anyone that feels my desire for beautiful surroundings is even reasonable, so I have to do everything myself . At 60 yrs old still no supportive others .
    My family doesn't understand my ambition but they love to drink too much lol !
    So anyway thanks for sharing your world , now I know what I would have if I had a supportive spouse and family.
    Just an fyi. I have 6 airbnb properties and just bought 12 acres.
    I will put in a butterfly garden and just installed a lovely fountain and pergola and cut down 160 yards of carragana hedge, and resurfaced my swimming pool. Just wish I had company to give it all more meaning !

    I really am thankful for all my accomplishments, just wish I had company !

    The Hartley is just beyond gorgeous! And the butterfly garden is the cutest little space for Benjamin.

    The Butterfly Garden is my favorite. Such a magical spot in the yard. Made even more so by the memory of Benjamin getting to pick out his own flowers and planting them. Just beautiful !

    Am I the only one that happens to LOVE this brick circle patio? Looks like Old Salem, NC, Williamsburg, Va & Beaufort, NORTH CAROLINA. It has history and such charm!!! The HARTLEY & The CHRISTmas tree = what an EXCELLENT pair. Had to stop the video and just stare with Joy for a couple of minutes.....you guys are so good to us!!!! Thank you!

    “I want this to be the beautiful spot”. So do we, Laura. So do we! I love seeing your dream come true. I could see your vision of what you have planned for the Hartley, and I can’t wait to see it come to fruition.

    The Hartley brick is lovely!
    Glad it's going to be a "destination" rather than a working greenhouse.

  • @crystalclark9939

    I love how Benjamin’s butterfly garden spills outside the fenced area. The view of your Hartley from the seating area is gorgeous.

    I'm really happy for you. Having a Hartley Greenhouse would be a dream come true (and it did come true for you!).

    This area + the Hartley and around the chicken coop are my favorite spaces in your garden! They’re filled with magic and I’d love to take a long, quiet stroll through them. Thank you for sharing! 💞✨

  • @laurenlove5940
    @laurenlove5940 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Yes yes yes about watching your old videos, they sometimes automatically play after your current ones and I just love thinking how two-years-ago-Laura has no idea what’s in store for her garden and I’m so excited for you all over again!

  • @13dulcie
    @13dulcie 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the butterfly garden. It is so cool watching his plants "grow up". You've made me a better gardener Laura. I have containers and a flower Garden that rival any others I've tried to do before it. That's all because of you. Thank you!

    Loved hearing your ideas for the Hartley! Especially the addition of a Christmas tree! I hope when you redo the bumpy brick area that you do another brick patio… it looks so charming behind you when you talk about where you’d like to have your table space.

    With Samantha. LOVING those bricks. Area gives a depth of age and a distinctly non-commercial look.

    Love this morning’s tour!! Brick area looks nice with the unplanned flowerbed refill, the Hartley is coming along gorgeous and my favorite this morning is how much the butterfly garden growed up!! Lol!!

    Maybe the person who showed your white doors in black can work his/her magic with the Hartley and the slate tile around the front? Seeing stuff is easier for me to decide what I would like. Frankly, I thought the black doors wouldn't look good until I saw that image with the black doors. Amazing.

    • @amyhendricks3627
      @amyhendricks3627 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Right? I planted some sunflowers imagining having some of the beauty Laura has...while they are pretty, and getting ready to bloom, they are spindly lil things. I make sure to ooh and aah at them every day thinking that's all that's missing :)
